Glee's finale is set to air on Friday, and that means we'll hear Lea Michele's final ballad! The song, This Time, was written by her co-star Darren Criss. During PaleyFest, Criss talked about what went into the song, saying:

The track, This Time, premiered on On Air With Ryan Seacrest just this morning, and fans are already buzzing about it online!

The Interscope signee had this to say about it:

I am thrilled to be joining the Interscope and 19 Recordings family. [Interscope Geffen A&M Chairman] Jimmy Iovine was an amazing mentor during my time on ‘Idol’ and I’m looking forward to working with him and everyone at Interscope Records and 19 Recordings. This is a dream come true!

Go girl! The message is universal, so we're sure all Idol audiences will enjoy it.
